mostly because of how awful Jake's season 2 Dragon form looks, he looks like a meth addict compared to his season 1 design

Season 1 looks like a 90's cartoon, while post-season 1 looks more fitting to its age.

I'm mixed on this one. Some later designs I like better but others I prefer the older designs.
The big deciding factor is his dragon form because I fucking love dragons and in that case the old one wins by a fucking landslide.

The girl in season 1 was allowed to have hips.
The total desexualization of cartoons is a sad fucking thing.
Also Jake in season 2 is the same colour as everyone else. While making him less yellow in a supposed attempt to make it "not racist", they've made it more racist by erasing his ethnicity.

Looks like season 2 ruined the visual gag that Jake Long was an actual western dragon with asian features, and turned him into a full noodle dragon instead

It's just a better look. The designs are appealing, whereas season 2 just looks lazy. Season 2 had better writing though.

>whereas season 2 just looks lazy
From what I heard, new writers came on the show and wanted things to be easier to animate. I can understand that for an action cartoon, but some of the changes are still inexcusable.

Individually, some of the characters looked better, some looked worse. I don't really mind it generally.

Does anyone know where I can find that incest porn comic with his mom? It’s not even on sad panda

I thought the season 2 design was far cooler. And him being skinnier and less humanoid makes sense because the dragons in the show are more based on Chinese dragons.

Go to advanced options and click the box that says "show expunged galleries"

I thought this shit was common knowledge

I heard it was because the main character designer for Season 1 died, and they decided to change the style as a sign of respect(kinda like how GI Joe Renegades got canned partly cause one of the creators died shortly after the first season ended)

Scalies

Literally chad season1 dragon vs virgin season 2 dragon

Season 2 Jake was so much better though. Rewatching season 1, the hip-hip stuff is shoehorned in so much, it’s difficult not cringing multiple times per episode.

Season two Jake is literally better in every single way.

-much less slang
-better human form design
-better and more intimidating dragon form design
-seems more like a teen than a kid
-better quips
-more competent

>more intimidating dragon form design
Wasn't the point of the redesign to make him look younger and inexperienced?

I don’t think so. He was a year older in the second season.

oh shit thanks
maybe you can help with this other problem i have. i'm trying to find comics by pandora's box but searching for the artist doesnt turn anything up but on of his comics is definitely on there exhentai.org/g/37765/dc65da501e/

It’s just a cooler design.

The human faces are definitely better in season 2.

Has anyone else tried to rewatch the show recently? All the tryhard hello fellow kids “slang” makes it a hard watch

good premise, bad show,

I think they should try it again.
also there was a cartoon facts video just done about this show, did they mention the creator's other work? (you know what im talking about)

No, it was just because they found that the original art style didn't animate well. The show was rife with awkward looking shots like this.

...

It was better than Danny Phantom at least, especially that show’s third season.

The season 2 designs are more jagged and unprofessional. You look at how slick and natural Jake's hair looks compared to his season 2 hair and you'll get what I mean

Second style fits the cartoon better

I watched one of the later episodes and saw Jake transform right in front of the principle guy who was basically crocker from FOP and I was so fucking shocked.

look at him user HE LOOKS COOLER THAN HE DOES ON THE RIGHT

why was the finale of this show shit? The huntsclan finale so significantly better, even Danny Phantoms finale was better.

>are more based on Chinese dragons
except him
it's the fucking title of the show

I like the upper pic more in the season 1, and the lower pic in season 2.

I don't like the show, period.

>The total desexualization of cartoons is a sad fucking thing.
>literally what is SvTFoE

>the way his S2 head almost looks human
Never thought I'd say this about a stylized cartoon, but this is some shit straight out of uncanny valley

Who the flying fuck actually thought that making S2 Jake Long look like a cheap Johnny Test clone was good?

>Chadragon and Virgin Lung

wtf are you talking about how so

I prefer the newer designs more, but season 1 had the best dragon form for Jake.

I don’t fucking know what they’re in OP. The second season actually looks like teenagers for Spud and Rose.

All kids look like meth addicts have you seen the Scene teenagers?

Season 2 human Jake looks better than Season 1 but Season 1 dragon Jake looks better than Season 2.

Don’t put in the full name. Leave the last letter out.

Even that doesn’t work though

The season 1 designs were way better

now thats a real american dragon

Is there a Russian dragon? Was he a Soviet dragon before? Are there two Korean dragons?

While the overall design of the S2 dragon form isn't appealing, one of the bigger annoyances is that he has his human hairstyle in it, rather than it becoming some kinda mohawk frill thing like in S1.

the dumbest show disney is airing right now where nefcy only does lewd shit to make her fans praise her for being so bold and daring

>visual gag that Jake Long was an actual western dragon with asian features
wasn't Jake half-Caucasian via his dad? Hence, his dragon-form having more a European morphology?

The shame is that they're better designs. The second Huntsman design isn't nearly as cool.

they wanna fuck the season 1 dragon

Original designs make the characters look like they have "weight" and imply three-dimensionality, redesigns make them look flatter. The redesigns also look stiffer and less expressive.

>literally complaining about underage characters in a cartoon for kids not being sexualized

...

I heard once that Jake's dragon form was redesigned to match his human form.

I found Jake's dragon formed looked like what he was known as, an American Dragon. Though that's about it.
Rewatching the show some time ago I found myself preferring a majority of S2 Designs more.
Only terrible design in S2 I can recall at the moment is Bertha

This

>he thinks the Nefster is pandering instead of experiencing emotional catharsis for her fucked-up party years throughout high school into CalArts

And the Oracle Twins

im not sure that counts as a gag
what asian features did he even have in his dragon form?

that's not her

All people on this board care about this show is the shota who happens to transform into a bara dragon. Personally I think some characters look better in S1 while some look better in S2.

It is, actually.

JOOST?!

>spoiler
What a terrible time to have dyslexia

The only good part of Season 2 change was the concept of not making Jake too OP, with his dragon from, since his still learning about.
Just that concept, though, since the execution looks like shit.
Also, Trixie's outfit design doesn't looks stupid.

bump

What?

Season 2 looks like it's falling a bit further into the BAUHAUS BULLSHIT FUCK CARTOONS

P O O N A

Reminds me of Eric Lampaert.

nefcy is hideous

what do u call what happened to the thing on the far right in season 2?

or is there only one gender among black people: black?

the grandfathers, and the sisters dragon designs were awful.

The head size for s2 dragon Jake is just so off putting
if they would've fixed it and make it more proportional i think most people wouldn't have so much of a problem with it
